RESUMO

Background and Objectives: Providing pasteurized donor human milk (DHM) to healthy newborns is an emerging practice. The content of hospital policies that govern this practice is unknown. Materials and Methods: We collected policies from 15 Northeast U.S. hospitals through (1) a 2017 survey on DHM use and (2) an e-mail listserv of levels 1 and 2 newborn care staff maintained by a regional milk bank. Two authors reviewed each policy and identified how they addressed three predetermined themes: who is eligible to receive DHM, how DHM is used and described, and how lactation is supported. Responses were compared, discussed, and reconciled. Level 1 newborn care was defined as basic care for healthy newborns ≥35 weeks' gestation. Results: Thirteen of 15 policies stated criteria for DHM eligibility, most commonly as a bridge until mother's supply comes in (73%) or for infant medical conditions (67%). All required consent for DHM. Most did not limit number of days infants could receive DHM (60%). Nine specified that DHM be discarded 24 hours after thaw, whereas five recommended discarding at 48 hours. Although many (53%) policies endorsed human milk as the preferred diet for newborns, only 27% specifically endorsed DHM as the preferred supplementation type. Parent education (73%) was emphasized, but few (27%) discussed the importance of establishing mother's milk supply. Conclusions: Many DHM policies address eligibility criteria for receiving DHM and show how to provide DHM, but few address how to support lactation while DHM is provided, which may be crucial for optimizing long-term breastfeeding outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Pasteurized donor human milk ("donor milk") is an alternative to formula for supplementation of breastfed infants. We conducted a survey to determine (1) prevalence, trends, and hospital-level correlates of donor milk use for healthy newborns in the northeast United States and (2) clinician knowledge and opinions regarding this practice. METHODS: We conducted parallel surveys of clinicians (88% nurse and/or lactation consultant) at (1) all birth hospitals in Massachusetts (MA) and (2) all birth hospitals served by a northeast United States milk bank. We asked about hospital use of donor milk for newborns ≥35 weeks' gestation and receiving Level I care in well nursery, hospital-related factors we hypothesized would be associated with this practice, and clinician knowledge and opinions about donor milk use. RESULTS: 35/46 (76%) of MA birth hospitals and 51/69 (74%) of hospitals served by the milk bank responded; 71 unique hospitals were included. Twenty-nine percent of MA birth hospitals and 43% of hospitals served by the milk bank reported using donor milk for healthy newborns. Hospitals that used donor milk for healthy newborns had higher exclusive breastfeeding at hospital discharge than hospitals that did not (77% versus 56%, p = 0.02). Eighty-three percent of respondents agreed or strongly agreed that using donor milk is an effective way to increase the hospital's exclusive breastfeeding rate. CONCLUSIONS: Many northeast United States birth hospitals currently use donor milk for healthy newborns. This practice is associated with higher exclusive breastfeeding at hospital discharge. Relationships with breastfeeding after discharge and related outcomes are unknown.
